UPE profiles are European U profiles with parallel heads. It is preferred in chassis and frames thanks to its wide heads and not requiring washers in bolted connections.
Example
The meter weight of the UPE 200 profile is 22.8 kg/m; it is lighter than the NPU 200 (25.3 kg/m) of the same height.

Values are nominal masses according to the EN 10365 size standard (steel density 7,850 kg/m³). Source: ArcelorMittal Sections and Merchant Bars 2024 catalog; each row is separately checked with cross-sectional area (G = 0.785 × A). Actual weight may differ by 2–4% ± due to rolling tolerances.
